If you're keen to snap up the B&M lights, bear in mind you might not find them for £2 at your closest branch and it might not even stock them.
If you want to save a wasted trip, you could always try calling your local store to see if they have any and for the lower price.
You can find your nearest B&M store by using the retailer's branch locator tool on its website.
You just have to type in your city, town or postcode and it will bring up your closest B&M location.
In any case, when buying something like this, always make sure to shop around to ensure you're getting the best deal.
Just because a retailer has slashed the price of a product, that doesn't mean you won't get it cheaper elsewhere.
You can use websites like Trolley and Price Spy to compare prices of thousands of products online.
Meanwhile, the Google Shopping/Product tab lets you scan the internet for a specific type of product to see which retailer has it cheapest.
We had a quick look online to see if any other retailers are selling similar solar light curtains for less than £2 but couldn't find any though.
Tesco has some on sale for £6 while Sainsbury's has a solar light curtain for £16.
The solar-powered light curtain deal isn't the first to catch B&M shoppers' eyes in recent weeks.
Customers were racing to their nearest branch last week after the retailer slashed hand towels from £2.50 to 50p.
Shoppers also spotted candles, cutlery organisers and electronic gadgets for just pennies too.
How to save money at B&M
Shoppers have saved hundreds of pounds a year by using B&M's scanner app.
The scanner lets you see if an item's price is cheaper than advertised on the shop floor label.
Products that are typically discounted are seasonal items and old stock that B&M is trying to shift.
The app is free to download off the B&M Stores mobile app via Google Play or the Apple App Store.
According to one ex-B&M manager, you'll want to visit your local branch at 10am on a Wednesday too.
This is when staff slash items to as little as 10p to clear excess stock and make way for new products.
